'keep me safe inside your arms, like towers.'♥


"this is my latest poem. it describes how i feel, how i try to hope that people think i'm okay. because i try to be strong but if my strength & my smile were taken away, underneath i'm not that strong at all. and it explains the emptiness that i feel."

'keep me safe inside your arms, like towers.'♥

you think you know me
when I stand strong next to you
you think you can feel I'm all there
when I smile, with you

but take down my happiness
remove my smile
take away my strength
remove all that keeps me standing there
you'll see that I'm bare
there's not one emotion there

broken, torn to pieces
ripped apart under the mask I wear
i appear warm, my soul for anyone who wants to take it
but remove my happiness, remove my heart,
take my feelings and leave all that I have, empty
just leave me, standing there

honestly I'm cold, lifeless and hurting
you think you can feel I'm all there,
well, take down my happiness,
fade all of my lifeless self...into black

take down my happiness,
remove my smile,
take away my strength,
then you'll see there's absolutely nothing there

please can you rebuild me
mend the parts that are broken
fix my aching heart
numb all of the pain, replace my emotions
with something warm again

paint on my smile and take away my tears
fill me with happiness and give me better years
for I want to be what you see
not how I feel inside

so take down my happiness
remove my smile
replace it for something that's real
take away the pain
replace it with something that's better

not a temporary fix
but something that will stay.
keep me safe inside your arms,
like towers. ♥
